The ideal candidate will have experience in prototyping or a high-mix, low-volume environment, demonstrating an ability to adapt to new designs, a keen eye for detail, and a commitment to process improvement.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Accurately cut, strip, and terminate wires according to specifications.
  • Perform various crimping operations to attach terminals, connectors, and splices.
  • Assemble wire harnesses and cable assemblies by routing wires, applying protective coverings (e.g., heat shrink tubing, loom), and securing with ties or clamps.
  • Read and interpret engineering schematics, technical drawings, and work instructions to ensure correct assembly.
  • Utilize sample harnesses and prototypes to guide assembly and verify accuracy.
  • Conduct basic quality checks and testing on completed harnesses to ensure they meet quality and functionality standards.
  • Participate in process improvement initiatives, identifying opportunities to enhance efficiency, reduce waste, and improve overall product quality.
  • Maintain a clean and organized work area and follow all safety protocols.

Required Skills and Qualifications:

  • Proven experience in wire harness assembly, including cutting, stripping, crimping wires and assembly.
  • Demonstrated ability to read and understand schematics, technical drawings, and assembly instructions.
  • Strong manual dexterity and attention to detail.
  • A strong willingness to learn new assembly techniques and processes.
  • Experience in a prototyping or high-mix, low-volume production environment is highly preferred.
  • Knowledge of common wire types, terminals, and connectors.
  • Familiarity with quality control procedures for electrical assemblies.
